Let's try to use the economy destroy the crazy country that has nukes. What could possibly go wrong?

I loved that game as a kid. Sadly, I didn't have the edition where the horse was even further away though.

Yeah well the other side also wants to take away our household appliances and our meat, and also everything else by enabling corporations to squeeze everyone dry even more than they already are.

China's has been "on the brink of something" for ages now. I don't see icbms flying over my head right now so it's probably not worth worrying about.

Cool, let's see if they backpedal on it a few months later like they did with cannabis.

Because if they're riding bikes they might not be buying $70k cars. How are the poor car companies going to afford to survive now? Someone think of the shareholders.

Idk, more and more people are switching to mac and ditching windows. If their m1 thing continues being successful they're going to have a more severe monopoly than Microsoft ever did. It's one thing to patch Microsoft's half ass attempts to embrace extend destroy Linux but that isn't going to work out as well anymore once all the mainstream stuff is quarantined to an entire different cpu architecture and computers that no longer use off the shelf parts.

Luckily the only software they really have right now that Linux doesn't is that s tier video editor and then no one wants to use their stupid Metal graphic acceleration so games are going to have a hard time taking off as well. Too bad most people think "command lines are too hard".

The common person is going to lose access to computers as we know them today if Apple wins. If it gets to the point where the only modem mainstream systems left are M1 macs, everything computer related is going to get 10x as expensive. $1000 for a potato ass MacBook Air is already obnoxious but when that's the only choice, that potato ass MacBook Air is going to cost $10k.

Wow too bad they aren't going to do anything about that Boeing whistleblower who "committed suicide".

I hope he goes bankrupt and loses everything - just like all lower class people will if the GOP gets their way.

That was the only thing left keeping me from being interested in the game. Finally, ship customization. Finally.

Yet they blame all the violence on marijuana.. What do they expect people in this situation to do, die? Fuck our broken society.

If they aren't going to make college classes less bullshit they least the could do is make them free. Whether I pass a class or not has always depended more on how reasonable they want to be about it.

If you're paying $100k just to be allowed to get a job, you should be entitled to that or a full refund regardless of anything else. Fuck everyone in charge of this joke of a society.

Oh, they trained their ais off of that all right.. And then filtered out all the stuff they didn't like such as useful information.
